Challenge answer: Guillermo del Toro (Model T) or Dennis Sanders (Nissan)
Winner:Nicole Castonguay, Portland, Ore.
Next week's challenge:This challenge comes from listener Bruce Campbell of Kansas City, Mo. Think of two well-known companies — one in five letters, the other in four letters. Write the names one after the other. The result, when spaced differently, will name a well-known geographical location in the U.S. (in two words). What is it?
